Method 7 steps
Mix Worcestershire sauce into beef.
Cut four large sheets of heavy duty aluminium foil and place a cabbage leaf onto the shiny side of each one.
Shape beef into 4 patties and place onto cabbage leaves.
Top each portion with onion and potato slices, add a pat of butter, and season with salt and pepper.
Wrap another cabbage leaf around the top of each portion and seal each package.
Place on medium-hot coals for about 20–30 minutes, turning twice (carefully) while cooking.
Discard cabbage leaves if they become charred during cooking.
